At least he is no longer in solitary confinement, having served the first 11½ years of his sentence under these inhuman conditions. I understand that after serving 2/3rds of his sentence he became eligible for parole under Israeli law, and he did indeed apply for parole at that juncture and has since. It seems however that such parole has continued to be turned down on security grounds even though the reason given for his release from solitary confinement was that he was no longer a threat to Israeli security. I consider Vanunu performed a service to mankind in blowing the whistle on Israel's secret nuclear weapons programme. You may not share this view, but I hope that you will at least agree that he has suffered enough for his act of conscience and ought to be granted parole. To continue to refuse to allow him parole on the flimsy grounds advanced smacks of a desire for vengeance rather than any concern for justice. Please convey these views to your government. For peace with justice [firma] [none e cognome, indirizzo]
